    Wishful thinking. Not a chance in hell it happens.

    FWIW, I don't really buy that report I posted from the south Florida paper. I highly doubt that Paxson had given this much thought before the #1 pick fell in his lap. The idea that he'd formulate such a "plan" after one day is pretty absurd to me. He's going to do a fair amount of homework (including seeing what he can get in terms of consolidating either forwards or guards in a trade(s)) and will watch both guys in workouts and everything. We'll see. I'm really hoping he decides on Rose, though.

    Are you seriously arguing that Parker, Ginobili, and Cassell were more important to championships than Duncan and The Dream? That's a joke. That's like saying Jordan didn't win til he got Bill Cartwright. Also, what has Kobe won without Shaq? What do you forsee Wade winning without Shaq? Shaq got to the finals with Penny Hardaway, Nick Anderson, and Dennis Scott...all guys that were on their way out of the league soon as Shaq left Orlando. That example's not gonna last very long... At least you'll get some use out of it before it's obsolete. :wink: And Penny was a stud, Shaq or no Shaq. Injuries derailed his career.

    It still amazes me how people get so upset over losses. It doesn't matter how they lose. It's 162 games. They're going to lose 60+ games and in some of them they are going to look absolutely terrible. It's not so much a reaction to anything in this thread but just a general thing. You start hearing people call in on the radio wondering what is wrong with the Cubs. Other people with knee-jerk reactions about how terrible certain players are or how they need to fix something. Based on one or two games. The worst is when they call in saying the team needs to bunt more to score runs more consistently, because the HRs aren't always going to be there. It's like these people think/expect you can win every game. /rant

    They changed that when the Devil Rays tried to pay Boggs to go in with a Tampa Bay cap.

    I've never heard of a good character guy playing for Calipari. I'll believe it when I see it. That's silly. Yea.... that is pretty ridiculous.

    Since nobody seems to answer in the other thread, can someone in here tell me where the people who claim to know about the current All Star vote tallies are getting their information?

    I thought they were giving him the day off tomorrow...

    How much of the balloting actually comes from the stadiums? I would imagine a majority is done online these days. I would think so to, but 40k (or whatever %age of the crowd would actually vote) a day would probably help *shrug*
  16. David
    WHERE ARE YOU GUYS SEEING THE VOTE TOTALS?
  17. David
    I'm pretty sure names like Garland, Noel, Cline, and Duncan were supposed to be going in the deal, but I could be wrong.

    Remember when we almost traded for him in 98? The story went that the Cubs had their offer in, the Marlins had accepted it (or at least looked close to accepting it ) and Piazza's agent called him while he was in the shower and told him to pack for Chicago. Then the Mets topped the offer.

    Don't forget Rick Wilkins's 1993.

    Plays a premium defensive position and is a great CFer. 1st in slugging 1st in homers Has 50 RBI and it's May 20th. Top 5 in everything else other than Runs. He is the only reason Texas is not 15 games under .500 soto has a higher OPS at a tougher position lance berkman's OPS is almost a full 0.3 points higher Soto has a lower average 2 less dingers 17 less RBI 7 less runs Hamilton is better than ANYONE we have in the middle of our order. Berkman is having a historic season, hits in a better lineup with much better protection, and still has less RBIs than Hamilton. Put Hamilton in between Tejada, Lee, & Pence and his stats would be eerily similar to Berkmans. lol a bunch of counting stats and the worst rate stat

    we are trying to beat the "Bruce Webber is the worst recruiter " thread over in the "rant" section. wat

    A manager's job is simple. For one hundred sixty-two games you try not to screw up all that smart stuff your organization did last December. - Earl Weaver In baseball, you can't kill the clock. You've got to give the other man his chance. That's why this is the greatest game. - Earl Weaver Momentum? Momentum is the next day's starting pitcher. - Earl Weaver The key to winning baseball games is pitching, fundamentals, and three run homers. - Earl Weaver I heart Earl Weaver

    You would think that with the Cubs being as good as they are, if they did push it as much as other teams, they'd dominate the voting. Might MLB have requested that we not push it very hard?
